Ocean Perch Fish Sandwich – Pan Fried

From Minnesota to Barbados and beyond, the fish sandwich is crafted in a variety of ways with different types of fish at the center. In Minnesota, the Walleye Fish Sandwich is a beloved local favorite where a Walleye fillet is placed on a soft sandwich roll with tartar sauce, tomatoes, and lettuce. Further south in the Caribbean we happened upon a small restaurant near Oistens that featured a Flying Fish Sandwich, which had Flying Fish breaded in a spicy cajun seasoning presented in a similar fashion.

Turn Ocean Perch fillets into an incredible sandwich. Give the fish fillets a light breading before putting them on a hot pan with butter. We add some onion slices, mini marzano tomatoes to the grill to caramelize. Last we whip up a fresh tartar sauce and combine everything in a Portuguese roll.
